Xen devel - Nov 2007 - [PATCH] add areca raid controller support to x86_32 and x86_64 kernel builds

Hi!

This patch contains a patch for the ref-linux-2.6.18 tree to add support for
areca raid controllers (ARCMSR). The arcmsr code has been taken unaltered from
www.areca.com.tw (arcmsr.1.20.0x.14).
Additionally the buildconfigs has been changed:
- xen0_x86_32 and xen0_x86_64 are changed to build arcmsr into the kernels
- xen_x86_32 and xen_x86_64 are changed to build arcmsr as a module

I don''t know if this patch really belongs to xen, but it saves us a lot
of time
since we''re using nearly every host with areca controllers.

Hi!

Sorry for submitting a patch off-list, but my original post with attached
patch has been rejected for some reason, maybe it''s too large (477k).

time
since we''re using nearly every host with areca controllers and found it
convenient
to have needed drivers in place.
